[Cosmo]

Ugh. Horrible.

 

[Regan MacNeil]

Glad you were able to slap an exclusive on there, Post. ****ing ghouls.

RIP.

 

[garrow]

Nooooooo! I was just watching Boardwalk Empire.......

 

[User 150927]

What a tragic loss. He was supremely talented.

 

[Driftwood]

It's all part of the game, yo.

RIP Omar

"You used to play that game with a stick, right?"

RIP. Such a loss.

 

[Webster]

Just a tour de force as an actor. RIP

"You used to play that game with a stick, right?"

RIP. Such a loss.

The Omar/Bunk scenes were rare, but they were the best.

I’ve never seen every episode of The Wire so I’ve been going to planet fitness three times a week and watching an episode each time on the treadmill. Omar has been one of my favorite characters. Wendell Pierce with a nice tribute here.

 

[micropolitan guy]

Had the chess-playing daughter on one episode of the Sopranos.

He was great as Chalkey White in BE.

 

[Kato]

Hey St. Peter ... Omar comin'!

RIP ... Oh, no doubt.

 

[Brooklyn Bridge]

A man’s got to have a code. Oh, no doubt.

Michael K. Williams has talked about his addiction and trouble overcoming those demons.

RIP Omar Little

This is a horrible loss. Omar is one of a handful of unique characters in all of literature, not just TV. His interpretation of that character made it so. Humane yet cold blooded. Criminal with a code. A totally honest portrayal of a man not fighting his sexuality or his violent nature, but one who is self-aware. Maybe not satisfied with his lot in life but who embraced it none the less, knowing the contradictions. It takes a supremely talented actor to make that happen. If that’s all he ever did, and it wasn’t, he accomplished more in His profession than 99% of all actors.

Stephen King almost died at a younger age:

 

[Webster]

Had the chess-playing daughter on one episode of the Sopranos.

He was great as Chalkey White in BE.

When he was watching Jackie Jr. in Boonton.

[Scout]

Just like you, man.
I got the shotgun. You got the briefcase.
It’s all in the game, though. Right?



RIP
